Chapter 253 Wei's Book
"Bronze ware from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period?"
Hearing Chen Jing’s question, Professor Chen responded: “If you want to understand, no one dares to really say the word “understanding” is the cultural relics accumulated by the thousands of years of civilization in China and Xia. However, I have studied and identified many bronze ware from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period over the years.”
After a brief pause, Professor Chen asked: "Xiao Chen, what do you want to ask? Have you been exposed to bronze ware recently?"
Chen Jing hesitated for a moment and said, "Well, the director of Kongxue's office has a bronze ware handed down from generation to generation. They have found many experts in their family to read the inscriptions, so I want to find out if there are similar bronze ware."
Regarding the inscriptions in Liang's book, Chen Jing had never asked Professor Chen before. The main information given by the treasure appraisal divine eyes was that the inscriptions in Shuangshi's book were combined into one to interpret and identify. There was only one Shuangshi's book, and Professor Chen was afraid that he would not be able to identify them.
Now, Chen Jing just wants to see if the knowledgeable Professor Chen has seen another Shuangshi Book.
After all, he has been involved in archaeological work for many years and has seen and contacted with more bronze ware than most people.
"Oh?" Professor Chen also became a little interested when he heard this and asked, "Is it the words of some small vassal states at that time? It shouldn't be unrecognizable. After all, the words of those small vassal states at that time were actually basically derived from the words of the six countries, and there are still traces to follow."
He is worthy of being Professor Chen, so he gives different opinions.
As he said that, Professor Chen suddenly thought of something: "Wait, the inscription I can't understand..."
"Xiao Chen, do you have a photo of that bronze ware? Show it to me."
Seeing the old man's reaction, Chen Jing immediately realized something. He quickly took out his cell phone and found the photo of Liang's book and handed it over. At the same time, he couldn't help but look forward to it in his eyes.
Professor Chen just took a look and said in surprise: "Isn't this the bronze ware in Lao Wei's house?"
Old Wei?
"No, the inscriptions on it are a little different." Professor Chen enlarged the photo and looked at it carefully, and said, "Although the inscriptions are different, the standards are very similar. These two bronzes must be related."
Of course it's related!
Chen Jing was surprised and asked, "Professor Chen, who are you talking about Lao Wei?"
"It was Lao Wei who bought your Lu Wangqin last time. He also had a bronze ware similar to this one at home. He asked me to help me read it in his early years. He wanted me to translate the inscription above, but I couldn't understand it."
"The inscriptions on it are not complete texts, they seem to be incomplete, and there is no trace to be found, and naturally they cannot be identified and translated..."
As Professor Chen spoke, he looked at Liang's book on his phone again: "The inscriptions on this seem to be incomplete. Can you just look at the inscriptions on the two bronze ware together to identify and interpret them?"
Hearing Professor Chen say this, Chen Jing smiled helplessly. He knew that Professor Chen, who had seen another book of Shuangshi, would definitely see the clues from it when he saw the book of Liangshi.
However, this is not a big deal. According to the clues given by the God of Treasure Appraisal, the inscriptions in Shuangshi's book are likely to have no content on where Xuan Li is, and should be other important clues.
"Interesting, interesting." Professor Chen's expression became excited and said, "I'll call Lao Wei and ask him to take the bronze ware over to see if this is the case."
The two bronze ware are engraved with incomplete inscriptions. With Professor Chen's archaeological work experience, we can naturally guess that the content of the inscriptions on it must have recorded extraordinary things.
Whether the above content is a record of verifying history or other secrets, it has at least great academic research value. This is the "high-level happiness" that Professor Chen pursues, and he is very excited.
Chen Jing's eyes were also excited at this moment. Another Shuangshi Book was found, and the treasure appraisal eyes could most likely obtain new and more detailed clues from it.
This means that Chen Jing has taken a step further from finding Xuan Li!
Afterwards, Professor Chen did not say anything else and called Wei Wenxiang.
"Hey, Lao Wei, you still remember..." Professor Chen told the matter excitedly.
Wei Wenxiang's excited voice soon came from the other side of the phone: "Okay, okay, I'll come over right away."
Then, Professor Chen hung up the phone and said with a smile: "Old Wei's family has been trying to understand what the inscription on the bronze ware that has been passed down from generation to generation means. After I asked me to help me see it but it was not translated in my early years, he thought he would definitely not know in this life. I didn't expect that Xiao Chen, you gave him a surprise."
Chen Jing responded after hearing this: "It was also a coincidence."
"Yes, by chance." Professor Chen said: "But archaeological research and cultural relics discovery also require some luck. You kid have excellent luck in this area. You can find a treasure like Jielu that has been lost for many years."
Faced with this topic, Chen Jing smiled and said nothing.
Wei Wenxiang rushed back very quickly, and probably was eager to know if there was really a connection between the two bronzes. After all, the Wei family, like the Liang family, have been bothered by the inscriptions on the Shuangshi Book for many years.
When Wei Wenxiang arrived, it was Chen Jing who opened the door for him.
"Teacher Wei."
Wei Wenxiang carefully held a wooden box with both hands, and when he saw Chen Jing, he smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, it's been a long time since we met."
"Well, Teacher Wei, come in first, let's quickly compare the inscriptions on the two bronze ware." Chen Jing nodded, his eyes fell on the wooden box he was holding, and said with great anticipation.
Then, the two walked into the living room, and Wei Wenxiang placed the wooden box directly on the coffee table, and then said, "No wonder, you can't even understand the inscription on this bronze ware in my house. It turns out that you need another one."
"I hope this time this can identify and interpret the content of the inscription above. This has troubled my family for countless generations. I have found countless experts. I have even studied the family precepts of my Wei family thoroughly, but I still found no clues."
As he said that, he also opened the wooden box, revealing the bronze ware placed quietly in it.
This bronze ware handed down from Wei Wenxiang's family is almost the same as the Liang family's book. It is about the size of two tablets and has a very similar shape. It has green copper rust on the surface, which has a sense of vicissitudes and thickness after thousands of years.
With just one glance, Chen Jing confirmed that this was another Shuangshi Book!
At the same time, the treasure appraisal eyes also reacted, and a golden light suddenly appeared, and it circled around the bronze ware several times, then returned to its eyes and turned into rows of words.
"This is a book of Wei's book of Shuangshi."
